The function "save" copies functions and variables in the current session
into a file. "load" restores the stuff saved. At the input prompt,
? save
and
? load
should display some information about those functions.

Not sure what you mean exactly, but perhaps the function
"writefile" is useful to you. writefile copies stuff from the console
to a file, so all the input and output is stored. The content of the
file created by writefile cannot be restored.
If you are using the wxMaxima user interface, I believe there is
a way to export the current session as HTML. Maybe someone
who uses wxMaxima can say something about that.
Hope this helps,
